Hello everyone,
For the past years I have always kept large freshwater tanks with monster fish, but I have been thinking a lot of maybe changing one of my current tanks to a saltwater tank. The tank is 200cm x 60cm x 60cm which is 720 litres or 180 gallons. I have never kept a saltwater tank so I have no clue how to prepare the filtration. My objective with this tank is too have a very simple tank with sand and some rocks to keep 2 or 3 Pterois Volitans (lion fish).
My questions are the following:
1) Can I use my canister filters in a saltwater tank? (1x FX5 and 1x FX6 available to use)
2) Exactly what materials and machinery/equipment do I need and how do I set them up?
Thank You
